Manchester United have a contingency plan in place in case Edinson Cavani leaves next month, with the Red Devils reportedly lining up a swoop for Mauro Icardi.
Cavani's future at Old Trafford has been a source of speculation, with the 34-year-old entering the final six months of his contract.
And according to Calciomercato, the Premier League outfit are preparing a move for Paris Saint-Germain striker Icardi should Cavani depart in the January transfer window.
The Italian publication claims Icardi is having a difficult time in Paris, with his game-time reduced following Lionel Messi's arrival this summer.
Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe are the first-choice front three at the Parc des Princes, meaning Icardi has often been a substitute when the aforementioned trio are fit.
However, they add that United could face competition from Juventus - with the Italian giants' monitoring the 28-year-old's situation.
As reported by Sportsmail, Barcelona are interested in Cavani - with the Uruguayan keen on the move too but it all depends on interim manager Ralf Rangnick.
